I would a: Find a proven system for making money selling your own or affiliate products online. b: Invest my money in that system. c: Lock myself in a room, focusing on that one system until I understood every step in detail. d: Keep myself locked in that room until I started making money with that system. e: Replicated that system many times. f: Release myself from the room and enjoy a lifetime of riches! If that money can buy you time to learn how to market online successfully, I think that'll be the best way to go.
The stock market is OVER !! Anyone who puts money into it deserves to lose it. I would buy gold, guns, ammunition and a bug out kit.
Well you can buy 5-10 domains and promote different Affliate Products on them. Buy SEO from some guys for all those domains so you get all those 10 domains on place 1 for those 10 products and you should make atleast 4 to 20 A DAY which results in 80 to 400$ a day if it the product is only 20$ profit per sale
My wife is all big into making homemade chalkboards and selling them on Etsy. I'd take some of the money and get her a nice website built that includes checkout, etc so she could market her craft to a wider audience. Maybe using a simple Wordpress site would work for this but I think she needs something fancy and built from scratch to show off. I'd take the rest of the money and spend 2 months in Hawaii
